Updates and the game is trash
I don't play online. I am one of these old-school gamers who likes career mode, and the romanticism that comes with taking a small team up through the leagues. But every update is a disaster. The pace of the game is ridiculously overpaced. I can be playing world-class or professional, and it feels like I'm playing Prime Barcelona in real-time. It is impossible to dribble past people. I can't remember the last time I hit a long-range shot and scored. The whole game is just terrible. It was fine when it first came out, but the updates have totally ruined the game. It's unplayable for me in career mode. All it is is press, press, press. There's no joy to creating goals. Outside the box, inside the box, it's just constant pressing. Unrealistic speeds.
